Matt sent this to me today: a high school percussion ensemble performing DJ Shadow's "Building Steam with a Grain of Salt" and "Changeling." What fun. And these kids gotta be diggin' that they've had at least a few weeks where they weren't forced to play "Louie Louie" or the evil march music from Star Wars. Their teacher, Brian Udelhofen, needs to do a full arrangement of the whole album.
That Ollie is a cute puppy!
That would be a good thread though:
"What was the most tortuous piece you had to play while in a Jr. High / High School band?"
I submit, "Mandy" by Barry Manilow
